Mr Edwards is also accused of depriving a woman of her liberty after breaking into her Huntingdale home in February 1988 – a charge the court was previously told “encompassed” an alleged indecent assault.

He has also pleaded not guilty to the abduction and rape of a 17-year-old girl in Karrakatta Cemetery in February 1995 – less than a year before Ms Spiers disappeared.
